Excessive download dependencies will put
a prospective customer off giving your application a fair look.

Indeed. Anything that requires additional effort or connectivity is a potential fatal design flaw in a demo version.


EXACTLY. That is why I like 100k .NET downloads instead of 1 Mb Delphi downloads.

The potential .NET compatibility issues that you are trying to invent are no more of a problem than we have had with Delphi incompatibilities with different versions of IE (remember the imagelist hassles?). I avoided using DateTimePickers for a long time because they were not guaranteed to be available on all of my customer's systems.
